    Because we don't need a warning that it's going to turn yellow. We need to be warned when it turns red. Hence the yellow light.

    I think they need to occupy the business side of a job. I'm sorry that recruiters have tricked you into think you're management right out of college. You have to earn your way up. Start at the bottom. It's okay.

    I suppose if I don't fly off, I would die in a fire. But wouldn't it be more grammatically correct to say "OR die in a fire"? And if I'm not flying on a dinosaur, then what will I fly on?

    How about first to do both. You would have to have an invention before you can file. Otherwise, I'm patenting time travel.

  12. Re:Apocalypse on The Vatican Lauds Hackers · · Score: 1

    Christianity was never anti-authority. Jesus said we should pay taxes, respect our government officials, etc... Paul said that even if you are unfortunate enough to be a slave that you should obey your master and do your best. (Not because enslaving people is right, of course, but because Christians should do their best in everything they do.)

    It only appeared that Christians were anti-authority because the rulers at the time did not like their practices and teaching. This is especially true for the "religious" leaders of the day. Even on the cross Jesus was obedient. Even when Peter cut off that soldier's ear, he restored the soldiers ear. Anti authority? Doesn't seem like it to me.

    So your biology department is not allowed to bias decisions when hiring against potential faculty members who don't believe in the basic tenets of biology?

    And church groups can't discriminate on religion to get federal funds for their charities. Sounds like the same thing to me.

    If that's what you want to do. I'm guessing that they are doing this to combat the abuses that Ben Stine discusses in his documentary, "Expelled".

  17. Re:Ok, maybe it's just me.... on Nintendo 3DS Launching On March 27 For $250 · · Score: 2

    So I was watching this infomercial in the 90's where they were trying to sell their lcd "game console" with over 1,000 games. And I'm not talking a dot matrix game console like the GameBoy; I'm talking about an LCD screen made of squares, circles, and x's. (imagine an LCD full of this --> [(x)] ). Anyway, part way through the infomercial, the narrator says, "Never buy one of those expensive games again!" as the lady is throwing "Super Mario World" for the SNES in the trash. I about died of laughter and always wondered who would be the idiot who would actually thing this was a good deal.

    Now I know...

  18. Re:What grounds? on Assange Could Face Execution Or Guantanamo Bay · · Score: 1

    The electoral college is important because it is the only way to prevent tyranny of the more populated areas of the US over the less populated areas. So basically this produces candidates who strive to serve the ENTIRE United States. Otherwise, if we did straight popular vote, candidates would only have to appeal to New England and California. And, like it or not, city folk are very different from rural folk. So in other words, if NY and CA picked every president, the Midwest and South may as well secede.

    I think you have issues if you won't play a game you want to play because it would make you feel silly. I'm a grownup and even before I had kids, I still played games like Mario or Kirby. I bought the Wii even before my first was born.
